Fitness Therapy Studio

After working with Michael for two years, I feel younger, stand taller and weigh less. I’ve learned strategies and exercises to reduce pain, and just feel so much better now. Being in better shape has helped me reach my goals of having more energy, better posture, and lower blood sugar. I strongly recommend anyone looking to improve their overall health to give Michael a call.

I suffer from tendinitis and close to frozen shoulder and just one session with Mike Slotin has given me much mobility ! Looking forward to the next three sessions ! Very educating ! I would recommend Mike to anyone who has muscle pain! Thank you !!

I have had the opportunity to have Michael Slotin as my trainer and massage therapist for over a year now. As a health care professional myself, I have been impressed with Michael’s knowledge of anatomy and physiology as it pertains to strength training, weight loss, pain management and therapeutic massage. Michael is a wealth of knowledge and strives to educate his clients while helping them achieve their personal goals.

Michael Slotin is my pain reliever. I have had a lifetime of chronic neck & back issues and tried over 12 different massage therapists in the area. I have been coming to Michael for 7 years & it has made a world of difference in my life! Michael’s best quality is that he truly cares! He really listens & finds the cause of the pain. He offers many different types of massage, including cupping. He also suggests stretches I can do at home. I am SO glad I found him!

I am a 76 year old woman whose had bilateral hip replacements. Before I started fitness therapy and therapeutic massage with Michael Slotin I had to lift my leg with my hand to get into my car and I couldn't get off the floor without pulling myself up holding on to the furniture. Now I swing my leg into my car without even thinking about it and I can get up off the floor under my own power. I rate Michael Slotin Fitness Therapy five stars but he deserves 10 stars for the improvement he's facilitated in my life. He's a true professional in every way. I will work with him for as long as I'm able. I encourage anyone who is suffering pain or just wants to improve their fitness level, give him a try. You won't be sorry.

Michael Slotin gives the best massage on the planet! I have had chronic knee pain since a snow skiing accident when I broke my leg a few years ago and that pain is gone along with all my daily aches and pains . I go in weekly now because I feel so much better ! I also love his exercise and weight class ! Quick and to the point ! Michael Slotin has a plethora of medical knowledge and has helped me in every area of fitness and diet . I can’t recommend him enough !

After struggling 4 months with whiplash and general old age stiffness I started training with Michael. First 2 days a week and then moved to 3 days. Michael pays attention to my abilities so I don't get hurt. When noticing I was having problems with my neck he did massage therapy and had me do the right exercises to relieve the discomfort. So if you would like a custom workout from a knowledgeable instructor based on your what your body needs, check out Michael Slotin Fitness Therapy Studio. Wish I found them sooner.

I cannot say enough good things about Michaels Slotin and his practice. I originally came to Michael because I was concerned about my running stride efficiency (I was a heel striker and unsure of how to proceed). Michael evaluated my gait while running barefoot on a treadmill and suggested a postural assessment. Sure enough, underlying muscular imbalances were contributing to my irregular running technique and chronic neck pain. It was nothing short of fascinating - I had no idea how my body had contorted itself over the years due to hours of sitting (one leg stronger, one arm stronger, hips tilted, shoulders uneven, etc.) Michael helped me see and understand what my body was doing and how to correct it, giving me strengthening exercises to perform at home. These helped my running but I was still having some intermittent neck pain. Well, I quickly learned that Michael's best skill is his massage. His knowledge of anatomy and physiology is unparalleled and his ability to find and release muscular knots and break up fascia is nothing short of extraordinary. After one massage my neck pain went away for weeks. It eventually came back because those muscles were stronger than my consistency in performing the realignment exercises at home (D’oh!). However, after the second massage my neck pain went away for months. I’m still shocked and believe this was a direct result of the strengthening exercises and his ability to correctly identify the source of the constraint and facilitate the muscular release. Of note, this was not a typical relaxing massage but a targeted and therapeutic massage. Due to my scar tissue there were moments of discomfort however, it was eye-opening to discover how my body carried evidence of prior damage that I failed to appreciate. I was blown away. I haven’t kept up with the massage but I have kept up the strengthening exercises and my pain is 95% better and much more manageable now. I know how to take care of myself at home. Thank you, Michael!
